This game that I haven't played shits on this other game that I haven't played. The only game that can rival it is one that does not even exist.
Don't worry, it's not blood. It's doodoo.
It's actually Frank's Red Hot. I bathe in it naked as well. Highly recommended.
lol, I think your post might have been a little too subtle, a lot of people think you were being serious...

Geralt looks like he's kind of put on a little weight, especially the face.
Oh stop that the "I haven't played" line. You doubt CD Project Red? You doubt Naughty Dogg (Uncharted 4), Batman Arkham Knight (WB), Zelda (Nintendo), Bloodborne (From). Do you not have eyes? Do you not see what I (we) see. This game is in beast mode.

Well then its not. Its blood from some sort of ritual sacrifice
In that case it's blood.
I've played TW2 on 360. Not anywhere near the same kind of battle system, can't really compare the two.
As for visuals, completely different aesthetic and scale. BB has much better art direction by far in literally every area of the game. But W3's straight graphics are better, even though BB isn't really a slouch there either with tons of geometry and polygons in virtually every area.
On the other hand W3 is an actual open world, whereas BB has a sub area, and although its main world is 'open' in the sense that you can go from the start to beginning without loading, its still not an actual open environment like the Witcher 3 is.
I think he means period blood
Those aren't ultra. They are high with hair works enabled.
I don't know, is it worse to have NPCs that just stand around and do nothing while you contemplate your choices or is it worse to have a game that actually checks how witty you are?

Really? :lol
Doing it on unicorn back is legit. Would only be more legit if an alicorn in flight.
I know that, but those videos show Hairworks, not the ultra preset.
Why would i care if the NPC is just standing there why i contemplate the most appropriate answer? It's a game not a bloody movie, conversation flow be damned.

You guys got it all wrong its probably Hershey's Chocolate Sauce..
Yeah I was simply pointing out the issue with your logic. You said it doesn't show hair works so it's not ultra. I'm saying they are mutually exclusive settings. It could be ultra without hair works too (though it isn't)

I am very interested in this game, but this is hyperbole out of control. Bloodborne has 93 metaacore and while this game will be good that will be tough to beat.
On combat...you must be joking. That is my main concern with this game. I will play The Witcher 3 for the story and exploration. If the combat doesn't drag down the stronger parts of the game I will consider that good enough. There is no way the average encounters in this game will compete with Souls combat.
That is a nividia feature, and plus, your probably gonna need a higher end rig to run them competently.
Some dialog choices are going to be time limited (like in Witcher 2) - I think that's great.. the Witche series is mostly about choices and consenquences and well sometimes you don't have the luxury of time, so you need to think fast.. in that particular scene the time limit is really generous, you know what he wants from you and the answers are short, so no problem there in my opinion
I really doubt those women are Triss and Yennefer.. probably just some random prostitues
I will never take anything you say seriously again.
It was Geralt.
The waifu wars will be strong in this one.
I see.
To my mind it kind of makes sense to associate ultra settings with Hairworks, like HBAO+.
On some games (COD Ghosts) there are presets to chose from (medium-high hairworks), so maybe CDPR will make this tech more scalable.
All right. Never played the previous games so had no idea timed conversations was a thing in the series. Still bums me the f*** out.

lol I was about to post that gif
Mmmmmm ancient chocolate sauce rituals. Count me in!
Same here. 'Ultra' meaning the highest quality settings which include proprietary technologies.

Very VERY true
Still... would love to finally see some updated console footage. Game is only a month out, after all...
This is what I am getting at in these forums. Thanks for the feedback by the way, but why say the battle system is not the same. We need to regard the fact that both are 3rd person RPGs. In your opinion, which combat felt better? I just think TW combat is more visceral. There is an odd hit detection on the From games that I've seen in playthroughs. Maybe it's just me.
I remember Valve releasing a first-person RPG (forgot the name), and I felt the combat was a lot more fun than that on Skyrim.
